I'm floored. Completely flattened. Like a pancake under a truck.
Rika Memorial Book arrived today and... yeah, it chiseled a grin on my face the size of Texas.
I'm a little bit jealous that it seems to be a much much more comprehensive recollection of her Takarazuka career than Mami's memorial Book is of hers, but that's so minor it fades quickly as I turn the pages of Rika-shininess. This book is 180 (!!) pages of happy making. Mami's is only 110; granted, it has less text and more pictures, but Rika's has complete GRAPH and Kageki articles where Mami's only has extracts (which also means less pictures from articles). Ah, but Rika. Oh, so much Rika love I have to be careful. *eyes Jen and tones it down* *cough* Yeah. Nice. Verrrrrrrry niiiice.
A first, superficial comparision of the books makes me think they appropriately reflect each 'siennes personality. So I'm happy. And so glad I finally let myself be tempted by the title picture of Rika's book. XD
Ok, what else was in the package... more Mami doujinshi. ^^ <3 And "Eden". Yays!! And, and... Yumiko. YUMIKO!ELIOTT. FINALLY. <3 <3
The sad thing is I won't be around until Sunday night to properly marvel and appreciate. :(
Dammit, I'm so tempted to skip the trip and watch Yumiko instead. Woe, woe, woe ~~~
